“Uncle Hu, work on the back of the bas.e.m.e.nt first. I’ll need that area in a few days, and I’ll seal it off once I’m done.”

Hu Quan patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, Lin Yuan. The end of the bas.e.m.e.nt is its strongest portion. As per your instructions, I asked Listen to bring Diamond radium that I used to fortify the walls of the inner area of the bas.e.m.e.nt. I don’t plan on carving anything into the walls of that area as it’ll just be asking for trouble. Instead, I’m going to layer suet jade pieces over the radium. The reflection of the Sunlight King Lotus’ light will make the bas.e.m.e.nt as bright as if it was on the surface.”

Lin Yuan could tell how much effort Hu Quan put into the bas.e.m.e.nt, and he hurriedly said, “Uncle Hu, you’ve worked hard.”

Hu Quan waved his hand dismissively and replied, “It’s not hard work at all! I enjoyed it! You’re not a Spirit Craftsman, so you can’t understand the satisfaction that comes from completing a satisfactory project. The bas.e.m.e.nt and Submerged Flood Dragon Lake are basically done. All that’s left is the wall carvings and the pavilions on the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake, which the other Spirit Craftsmen can handle. Frankly, the Over the Rail Coral and Heavenly Maiden Sleet elemental pearls you gave me have been calling to me the past two days! Now, I can finally go off by myself in peace and think about how I should string the 107 Over the Rail Coral and one Heavenly Maiden Sleet heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls together for you.”

Lin Yuan chuckled and said, “No one in the mansion will dispute your skills. You’ll definitely be able to bring out the most radiant side of the heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls.”

Hu Quan suddenly felt as though he had been living in a dream for the past six months.

Six months ago, he had been just a common Cla.s.s 4 Spirit Craftsman. But now, he was the rising star of the Cla.s.s 5 Spirit Craftsmen and had been given access to spiritual materials that he had never dared to dream of.

All of these blessings came from this young man standing before him.

Hu Quan raised his fist and said resolutely, “Young Master, my horizons broadened after I became a Cla.s.s 5 Spirit Craftsman. Although there aren’t any higher cla.s.ses, my ambition to become better will endure forever.”

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow as he did not know why Hu Quan was suddenly declaring his resolution.

“Uncle Hu, have you heard of the Cla.s.s 6 abyss dimensional rift that opened in the Radiance Federation? The veteran and top factions are all readying themselves to venture in. The world is expanding, and nothing is impossible. All of us are pioneers. There might even be a Cla.s.s 6 Spirit Craftsman in the future. Creation Masters and other lifestyle-cla.s.s spirit qi professionals all have the same cla.s.s rankings. Uncle Hu, let’s forge forward together!”

Hu Quan suddenly felt youthful vigor surging up within him.

After talking to Hu Quan, Lin Yuan suddenly thought of Yin Lin and Bei Xu.

Yin Lin was now an Azure Envoy and was living a better life than Lin Yuan. There was no need for Lin Yuan to look out or help her anymore.

However, Bei Xu was different.

Lin Yuan was afraid that an accident would befall Bei Xu in the Grotto Continent and prevent him from attending the Astronomical Parliament.

Lin Yuan felt that it was time to equip Bei Xu.

Bei Xu had just comprehended a Willpower Rune. If he gave Bei Xu a fey that was not suitable with his Willpower Rune, it still would not be of any help to Bei Xu.

Lin Yuan took out all the source-type items he had acc.u.mulated to see if there was one that Bei Xu could contract without using too much of his spiritual power.

He now had over 500 source-type items even though he had not intended on collecting so many.

After searching through the source-type items for some time, Lin Yuan’s eyebrow twitched.

Although some of them had strict conditions and had unorthodox powers, they would become very strong in the hands of the right person.

Lin Yuan sorted these source-type items out and stored them separately.

There were two source-type items amongst the 500 that Bei Xu could contract. However, their contraction method was opposing.

One of them was the Possessed Dark Vine. Its contraction conditions stipulated that it needed to be implanted within a spirit qi professional’s flesh just like the Gold Ring Spine Gu.

However, the Gold Ring Spine Gu was implanted in the spirit qi professional’s spine and would harm its spirit qi professional.

Meanwhile, the Possessed Dark Vine would not do this as it just needed to absorb the energy inside a spirit qi professional.

If the Possessed Dark Vine could absorb enough of the spirit qi professional’s energy, the spirit qi professional’s body would not be affected.

However, the Possessed Dark Vine could only be used in an environment without light.

In a bright environment, the Possessed Dark Vine’s leaves would curl up, and it would enter a state of hibernation.

It was suitable for Bei Xu to contract the possessed Dark Vine as it was mostly dark in the underground world, even at noon.

However, this would also limit Bei Xu’s power when he reached the surface.

The other source-type item was the Life Knot Rock Crystal. It was extremely similar to the Insect Queen in that the spirit qi professional would not be able to contract any other source-type item or fey with his physical body once the Life Knot Rock Crystal was contracted.

This meant that Bei Xu would not be able to use a blood contract or his body to contract any other source-type item and fey in the future.

Nonetheless, Bei Xu would still be able to contract feys with his spiritual power.

In this aspect, the Life Knot Rock Crystal’s contraction condition was more relaxed than that of the Insect Queen.

After Bei Xu contracted the Life Knot Rock Crystal, it would grow a layer of crystal skin that would increase Bei Xu’s defensive abilities and provide him with more protection in the Grotto Continent.

The Life Knot Rock Crystal was also very easy to maintain as it did not require pure spirit qi to evolve. Instead, it evolved through continuous consumption.

But while Red Thorn consumed flesh, the Life Knot Rock Crystal consumed soil. It needed to consume rocks and metal-type spiritual ingredients to grow continuously.

The Life Knot Rock Crystal also did not need Bei Xu to comprehend any Willpower Runes.

Just like the Acid Corrosion Queen Bee, the Legend could comprehend a Willpower Rune on its own once it reached Diamond X/Legend.

Lin Yuan felt that the Life Knot Rock Crystal was more suitable for Bei Xu as the Grotto Continent was full of rocks and metal-type spiritual ingredients that would be able to help the Life Knot Rock Crystal evolve.

Now that he had chosen a source-type item for Bei Xu, Lin Yuan entered the training room to see Wen Yu. He sat down on a chair and entered the Astronomical Parliament alongside her.
